This module explores the connection between surface and pattern by combining 3D macro-scale topological surfaces (specifically, South-West Tasmania terrains) with 2D micro-scale painterly patterns (specifically, robe samples from Northern Italian Renaissance painting). The emergence of new drape variants is expected to occur within the realm that exists between movement and stasis, affect and object, matter and discursive formations.

As a result of a mapping of initial fabric qualities, a stretched ab-
stracted 3D pattern appears in the foreground. Transformed in its
entirety, the object-pattern escapes its initial boundaries of interpre-
tation. Artefacts of interpretation, which are now functional as inde-
pendent entities, bear some similarity to their initial state. By way of
a painted backdrop, its initial location and condition diminish. The
(compost) image arises as an extension of a drapery study by virtue
of its unique fabrication process, as a result of this novel causal con-
nection.
